DeepFinance: Can AI Diligence a $100MM Deal?

Drew Hahn, Tyler Shibata, Jackson Grove, Rahul Sonwalkar

原文摘要

Existing evaluations of AI models on high-finance work focus on retrieving answers from financial documents and producing numerically correct outputs. Real private equity (PE) and investment banking (IB) work also depends on choosing between conflicting sources, making sound assumptions, and keeping every step auditable. We introduce DeepFinance, an ultra long-horizon benchmark of 21 end-to-end PE and IB tasks that take a human professional an average of 27.1 hours. Each task pairs a request with a data room averaging 19 files and is graded against an average of 84 expert-written rubric criteria covering output, workflow, and judgment. We evaluate 22 model configurations, each in its native agent harness. The best configuration, GPT-6 Astra with max reasoning, satisfies 57.6% of rubric criteria, and the top four configurations are not statistically distinguishable. Frontier models often calculate correctly from the wrong inputs and find decision-relevant evidence without acting on it.

Socially interactive humanoids aim to interact with humans through their bodies, adapting in real time to a partner's movement, intent, and abilities. This requires models that understand both how bodies move and what their movements mean. Yet, existing evaluation frameworks for interactive motion generation do not assess whether generated reactive motions are valid or appropriate within a shared movement vocabulary. Existing frameworks rely on kinematic metrics such as FID and beat alignment that cannot capture this semantic property, while improvised interaction datasets lack fine-grained move annotations. Inspired by computational evaluations of games such as Go and Chess, we propose Salsa as an embodied interaction evaluation domain. Salsa is interactive, dyadic, and governed by a move vocabulary and community-validated judging criteria covering timing, musicality, technique, difficulty, partnering, and originality. We present CoMPAS3D, a motion capture dataset of improvised partner salsa dance and an evaluation framework covering kinematic quality, two objective metrics (move legibility and proficiency appropriateness), and six competition-based subjective dimensions. The dataset comprises 3 hours of improvisation by 18 dancers spanning beginner, intermediate, and professional skill levels, with over 2,800 expert-annotated segments covering move types, execution errors, and stylistic elements. We define three benchmark tasks: move classification, proficiency estimation, and follower generation. Fine-tuned vision-language models perform well on ground-truth sequences and correlate with subjective expert judgments, suggesting their promise as measurement tools. Applied to Duolando and InterGen, our objective metrics reveal a large gap between ground-truth and generated dances, corroborated by expert human evaluations across six judging dimensions.

TopoSteer: Topological Layer Selection for Activation Steering in LLMs

Tuc Nguyen, Marcos Gutiérrez-del-Pozo, Eduardo Paluzo-Hidalgo, Yifan Hu, Adaku Uchendu, Thai Le

原文摘要

Activation steering controls large language models at inference time by adding a vector to their internal representations. Most work asks how to build that vector, and far less attention has gone to where to add it, even though steering at a poorly chosen layer can be worse than not steering at all. Prior selectors choose a layer without ever steering the model to test it: they score how separable the target behavior is at that layer, and how consistently the individual examples point along the steering direction. We argue that what matters is not the separability of the two activation clouds, nor the alignment of individual displacements with their mean, but the extent of the cloud of per-example displacements that mean-difference steering averages. We propose a topology-based layer selection method, called TopoSteer, which scores a layer by the total H_0 persistence of its displacement cloud, computed as the length of the cloud's Euclidean minimum spanning tree. We show that the score focuses on the displacement cloud's relative geometry, while class separation affects it only through standardization. We also provide a theoretical explanation for our method by proving that, as example-level variation increases, TopoSteer and discriminability move in opposite directions, so the two criteria can rank layers in opposite ways. Across multiple language models and steering tasks, TopoSteer provides a principled alternative to discriminability- and separability-based layer selection and yields more effective steering without requiring held-out validation.

RAG-TRACE: Tracing Measurement Evidence and Diagnostic Completeness in AI-Generated ECG Reports

Elyas Irankhah, Shahed Salehzehi, Parisa Hosseini

原文摘要

Purpose: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) can introduce electrocardiogram (ECG) criteria that lack patient-specific measurement support. This study evaluates the reliability of retrieved diagnostic criteria in AI-generated ECG reports. Methods: We analyzed 1,083 human-validated PTB-XL patient records using a library of 47 criteria cards, including 33 without numeric verification rules. Language models generated structured reports with and without retrieval. Criterion applicability was evaluated using Marquette 12SL measurements, with independent assessment using Uni-G and comparison against expert-validated diagnostic labels. Results: Keyword retrieval introduced untestable or measurement-disconfirmed criteria in 46.8% of GPT-4.1-mini reports. A deterministic verification rule withdrew 647 criterion applications, including 639 without numeric checks, while preserving 268 of 269 applications independently supported by Uni-G. Restricting retrieval to 14 testable criteria reduced the initial unsupported-criterion rate to 13.8%. Under matched instructions and an identical output schema, retrieval increased unsupported-criterion reports from 17.4% to 31.1%, while hypertrophy recall remained unchanged at 62.6%. Conclusion: These findings identify a fundamental limitation of retrieval-based clinical report generation: retrieved criteria do not necessarily provide valid patient-specific evidence. Measurement-based verification can reduce unsupported criterion applications, but diagnostic validity requires independent assessment.

QuechuaTok: Morphological Boundary Accuracy as a Necessary Metric for Tokenizer Evaluation in Agglutinative Low-Resource Languages

Maria Contreras

原文摘要

Tokenization is a foundational step in NLP pipelines, yet standard evaluation metrics such as fertility rate fail to capture morphological correctness for agglutinative languages. We present QuechuaTok, a systematic benchmark comparing four tokenization strategies - BPE, Unigram LM, WordPiece, and a morphology-aware PRPE tokenizer - for Southern Quechua (quz), a low-resource agglutinative language spoken by 8-10 million people in South America. Using a 200k-sentence corpus and the SQUOIA finite-state morphological analyzer (Rios, 2016) as silver standard, we evaluate three metrics: fertility rate, OOV rate, and morphological boundary accuracy (MorphAcc). Our results show that BPE achieves the lowest fertility rate (1.636 at 16k vocab) by memorizing surface word forms, while achieving only 6.67% MorphAcc. PRPE achieves 83.33% MorphAcc - the highest of all systems - demonstrating that fertility rate alone is insufficient to evaluate tokenizers for agglutinative languages. We further validate this finding extrinsically: on a Spanish-to-Quechua (Chanka) neural machine translation task, a model trained with PRPE outperforms an identical BPE-trained model by +68.7% BLEU and +17.0% chrF, showing that morphological boundary accuracy translates into measurable downstream gains.

Structural Pattern Mining in Inka Khipus: A KFG Re-Analysis

Maria Contreras

原文摘要

This paper reports a methodological pivot from the Open Khipu Repository to the Khipu Field Guide (KFG) database, prompted by stalled progress on the OKR, and a full re-analysis of the resulting 650-khipu sample. Three findings recur across every analysis attempted. First, khipu size confounds nearly every derived structural count, explaining 42-70% of its variance; all subsequent models control for it. Second, the two-letter name prefix (AS, UR, HP, QU, JC, MM, KH) identifies the original cataloger, not a site or period, which turns documentation completeness into a second confound that must be modeled explicitly. Controlling for both, khipus cataloged by Hugo Pereyra's Proyecto Quipu (HP) show significantly fewer Ascher sum-relation types than Gary Urton's (UR) khipus (p = 0.044), while the Ascher-cataloged (AS) khipus are too collinear with their own near-total lack of side/direction documentation to assess (VIF = 5.0). Third, generic structural clustering (UMAP+HDBSCAN) does not separate the pooled 650-khipu sample from two independent null models (permutation and Gaussian), corroborating an independent conclusion already reached by the KFG itself; the same test restricted to a single cataloger (UR) proved not reproducible across runtime environments and is reported here as a methodological caveat rather than evidence of structure. A targeted replication of the KFG's own S/Z-knot spatial-block heuristic for calendar/astronomical khipus recovers 8 of 10 published candidates and proposes 34 additional ones under the same criterion.

Nemotron 3.5 Super and Lightning: Open, Efficient Mixture-of-Experts Hybrid Mamba-Transformer Models for Agentic AI

NVIDIA, :, Aastha Jhunjhunwala, Aayushi Ashokkumar Srivastava, Abhibha Gupta, Abhinav Garg, Abhinav Khattar, Achsah Wildish 等 559 位作者

原文摘要

We introduce Nemotron 3.5 Super and Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, open and efficient Mixture-of-Experts Hybrid Mamba-Transformer models designed for reasoning, long-context understanding, and agentic workloads. Super is a 120B-parameter, 12B-active multimodal model, while Lightning is a smaller 30B-parameter, 3B-active text model; both designed for efficient deployment. Both models combine large-scale distillation, long-context training, and native speculative decoding, while Super further incorporates Indic continued pretraining and agentic software-engineering mid-training. We develop a comprehensive post-training pipeline spanning supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning (RLVR and RLHF), complemented in Super by specialized teacher training and multi- teacher on-policy distillation (MOPD). This transforms Super from a text-only base model into a multimodal agent capable of reasoning over text, images, video, and interactive tool environments. We further explore test-time scaling through parallel agent execution and self-verification. Across training and deployment, we jointly optimize capability and efficiency. Indic continued pretraining improves Indian-language benchmarks by up to 9.82 percentage points, while agentic mid-training strengthens software-engineering capabilities and robustness across agent harnesses. The post-trained Super model achieves 51.78% on SWE-bench Pro, surpassing Nemotron 3 Ultra despite using approximately 4.6x fewer active parameters. Post-training MTP boosting improves speculative- decoding acceptance length by up to 21.8% under probabilistic draft sampling, while NVFP4 quantization achieves 99.62% median accuracy recovery relative to BF16. Inference optimizations enable up to 4,856 output tokens/s/GPU on GB200 while sustaining at least 50 tokens/s/user.

AutoChecklist: Composable Pipelines for Checklist Generation and Scoring with LLM-as-a-Judge

Karen Zhou University of Chicago, Chenhao Tan University of Chicago

原文摘要

Checklists have emerged as a popular approach for interpretable and fine-grained evaluation, particularly with LLM-as-a-Judge. Beyond evaluation, these structured criteria can serve as signals for model alignment, reinforcement learning, and self-correction. To support these use cases, we present AutoChecklist, an open-source library that unifies checklist-based evaluation into composable pipelines. At its core is a taxonomy of five checklist generation abstractions, each encoding a distinct strategy for deriving evaluation criteria. A modular \textit{Generator $\rightarrow$ Refiner $\rightarrow$ Scorer} pipeline connects any generator with a unified scorer, and new configurations can be registered via prompt templates alone. The library ships with ten built-in pipelines implementing published approaches and supports multiple LLM providers (OpenAI, OpenRouter, vLLM). Beyond the Python API, the library includes a CLI for off-the-shelf evaluation and a web interface for interactive exploration. Validation experiments confirm that these checklist methods significantly align with human preferences and quality ratings, and a case study on ICLR peer review rebuttals demonstrates flexible domain adaptation. AutoChecklist is publicly available at https://github.com/ChicagoHAI/AutoChecklist.

Pre-Deployment Advertisement Ranking under Data Scarcity via Context-Aware Criteria Generation with VLMs

Kyungho Kim, Yeonje Choi, Gyurim Hwang, Sejin Chung, Hongseok Lee, Myeong Ho Song, Yeongho Kim, Sunwoo Kim 等 11 位作者

原文摘要

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) perform well on general multimodal tasks, yet applying them to real-world advertisement (ad) evaluation is challenging due to strong brand specificity and limited labeled data. We introduce a new practical task, brand-specific ad ranking, which aims to rank ads for a target brand prior to deployment by modeling brand-specific effectiveness. To this end, we propose ADvisor, which derives explicit brand-aware decision criteria using VLMs, augments limited brand context with ads from similar brands, and applies reflection-based scoring for ranking. Experiments on real-world advertising data from 10 brands, collected through actual ad campaigns, show that ADvisor outperforms strong baselines by up to 7.2%. Further analyses show the generated criteria capture meaningful brand specificity, and ADvisor also performs strongly in online A/B testing. Our code is available at https://github.com/K-Kyungho/ADvisor.

原文摘要

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has driven substantial progress in reasoning-intensive domains like mathematics. However, optimizing open-ended generation remains challenging due to the lack of ground truth. While rubric-based evaluation offers a structured proxy for verification, existing methods suffer from scalability bottlenecks and coarse criteria, resulting in a supervision ceiling effect. To address this, we propose an automated Coarse-to-Fine Rubric Generation framework. By synergizing principle-guided synthesis, multi-model aggregation, and difficulty evolution, our approach produces comprehensive and highly discriminative criteria capable of capturing the subtle nuances. Based on this framework, we introduce RubricHub, a large-scale (110k) and multi-domain dataset. We validate its utility through a two-stage post-training pipeline comprising Rubric-based Rejection Sampling Fine-Tuning (RuFT) and Reinforcement Learning (RuRL). Experimental results demonstrate that RubricHub unlocks significant performance gains: our post-trained Qwen3-14B achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) results on HealthBench (69.3), surpassing proprietary frontier models such as GPT-5.

原文摘要

Arabic is a highly diglossic language where most daily communication occurs in regional dialects rather than Modern Standard Arabic (MSA). Despite this, machine translation (MT) systems often generalize poorly to dialectal input, limiting their utility for millions of speakers. We introduce Alexandria, a large-scale, community-driven, human-translated dataset designed to bridge this gap. Alexandria covers 13 Arab countries and 11 high-impact domains, including health, education, and agriculture. Unlike previous resources, Alexandria provides unprecedented granularity by associating contributions with city-of-origin metadata, capturing authentic local varieties beyond coarse regional labels. The dataset consists of parallel English-Dialectal Arabic multi-turn conversational scenarios annotated with speaker-addressee gender configurations, enabling the study of gender-conditioned variation in dialectal use. Comprising 107K total turns, Alexandria serves as both a training resource and as a rigorous benchmark for evaluating MT and Large Language Models (LLMs). Our automatic and human evaluation benchmarks the current capabilities of Arabic-aware LLMs in translating across diverse Arabic dialects and sub-dialects while exposing significant persistent challenges.The Alexandria dataset, the creation prompts, the translation and revision guidelines, and the evaluation code are publicly available in the following repository: https://github.com/UBC-NLP/Alexandria

Your Inference Request Will Become a Black Box: Confidential Inference for Cloud-based Large Language Models

Chung-ju Huang, Huiqiang Zhao, Yuanpeng He Peking University, Lijian Li University of Macau, Wenpin Jiao Peking University, Zhi Jin Peking University, Peixuan Chen, Leye Wang Peking University

原文摘要

The increasing reliance on cloud-hosted Large Language Models (LLMs) exposes sensitive client data, such as prompts and responses, to potential privacy breaches by service providers.Existing approaches fail to ensure privacy, maintain model performance, and preserve computational efficiency simultaneously.To address this challenge, we propose Talaria, a confidential inference framework that partitions the LLM pipeline between a client-verified Confidential Virtual Machine (CVM) and the public cloud to protect client data without compromising the cloud’s model intellectual property or inference quality.The interaction between the CVM and the cloud is secured by our Reversible Masked Outsourcing (ReMO) protocol, which uses a hybrid masking technique to reversibly obscure intermediate data before outsourcing computations.Extensive evaluations show that Talaria can defend against state-of-the-art token inference attacks, reducing token reconstruction accuracy from over 97.5% to an average of 1.34%, all while being a lossless mechanism that guarantees output identical to the original model without significantly decreasing efficiency and scalability.To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that ensures clients’ prompts and responses remain inaccessible to the cloud, while also preserving model privacy, performance, and efficiency.
